Hoping to find a young cricket pitcher he can turninto a Major League Baseball star, JB travels to India to produce a realityshow competition called "Million Dollar Arm." "Million Dollar Arm - Trailer #1" I'm J.B. Bernstein. I'm a sports agent. Hey. Who's that? She's my neighbor. Not my type. Why? Because she's not a model? Yeah, stay away from that. Right now I'm on the verge of a huge break. Without this deal, we're done. What's going on here? Don't tell me you've signed a contract with these guys. It's just business. Guess what, we're out of money. I don't know what else to do, JB. Hey, how fast do they pitch in cricket? I think I've cracked this. It's called Million Dollar Arm. We find the first Major League Baseball player from India. Like being on the road? Words cannot express. Ray, how are you gonna know if anyone can throw if you keep your eyes shut all day? I can hear it. Really? Ah. That was about a 43. Bingo. We have our finalists! Welcome to America, boys. OK, all right, guys. Who is that? Is she servant? She's a beautiful servant. We can't trade somebody who has never picked up a baseball, it's insane. OK, so how's it going? Baseball is very hard. This is Major League Baseball, not some social experiment. You're not ready for this kind of pressure. This is business. You'll be a sideshow. These guys are not ready for a Pro Tryout. Their chances fall between slim and none. God! Are you OK? These kids, they're my last best shot. But they're also just a couple of great kids. Kids. I mean, they're far from home. They need to see that you care. Wow. This whole alternative family thing, it looks good on you. Let's do this, partner. Boom. You got a Major League tryout. Are you messing with us? No, I'm not messing with you. You got a tryout. Alright, go ahead. Say it. Did you kiss Miss Brenda? No. She kissed me. Oh!
